Computer help: xbox 360/pc through a router?
xbox 360/pc through a router?
by adepippo - 10/24/06 1:11 PMHello,
Hoping someone maybe able to help...Basically, I wish to put my xbox360 through the same modem as my pc. I can run both individually through the router, with no problems.
I got hold of a second hand router (has been tested - 100% okay) called a unex nexhub HD080.
I can run my pc through the router with no issues, I just cannot connect my 360 through it at all. The 360 says it cannot find IP etc, but when I manually input the ip it says it cannot be found.
Any ideas, I have looked through Microsoft and unex help pages to no avail.
Thanks,
adepippo

That's a hub and not what you need.

Cool, I was informed I could use this to do what I was trying, guess I'll have to buy one, any suggestions for a router?
Thanks a lot,

Which router?

Hard to tell since I don't know your country's offerings.
Linksys, dlink, netgear all seem fine here.

netgear

Okay, thanks Bob,
I know a lot of netgear stuff is used, I go check out the stats!
Cheers.
HIGH SPEED CABLE ?
by Scrotes4Life - 10/24/06 6:53 PM In reply to: xbox 360/pc through a router? by adepippoIt can be run through a router via high speed cable - this I know. The router manual will demonstrate the configuration. Read the manual, because it will take 9 paragraphs to go into detail.
I'll try

Thanks for the response, I don't have a manual, as it's second hand - from their website, I read the pdf and it's particularly unhelpful.
Have you any suggestions for a decent router?
Thanks again.
